Famous Entrepreneurs story

Haven’t been blogging for so long. i was so lazy to do anything.

i found a new website. when i have free time in the office, i always go to this site about Famous Entrepreneurs stories. Its Evan Carmichael’s site.

i’m so hooked on.

I read about Walt Disney, Vera Wang, Donald Trump, Simon Cowell (oh yes), Ralph Lauren, Estee Lauder, Oprah Winfrey… and my favourite story is.. Debbie Fields’ ;)

What makes me remember her than the rest is because of her strong will and determination (well its more than that ). She doesnt have a degree, she didn’t finish school, the only thing she has was a cookie recipe and a dream.

She was turned down by huge number of bankers but she didn’t take no for answer. She knew someone out there will say ‘yes’. And she’s right.

Her own husband and parents didn’t believe in her. She was alone from the start. She was even challenged by the husband that her cookies wont be sold for $50 on the first day. Well, she proved him wrong. :)

I wonder would you continue chasing your dreams if people around not supporting you?
